Mother’s Day Gift Guide, From You to You
Mother is a verb. It's something you do. Not just who you are.
Mother's Day is a heartfelt occasion to express our gratitude and love towards the phenomenal mothers in our lives, encompassing not just those related by blood or adoption. These remarkable women dedicate their efforts to nurturing and caring beyond themselves, making it essential to honor and celebrate their contributions.
To all of the moms out there, thank you for your love and support. And to the cannamoms out there, we've curated the best gifts from Ü to Ü for this holiday and all others. These tailored gifts are to help you maximize the day (and all others) the way you deserve. But before diving into the Mother's Day Cannabis Gift Guide...
What Exactly is a Cannamom?
A cannamom could be called a ganja mom or marijuana mama, and yes, it's exactly what it sounds like: a mom who incorporates cannabis into her lifestyle.
Cannabis is renowned for its numerous comforting properties, which include pain relief, anxiety reduction, depressive symptom management, anti-inflammatory effects, gastrointestinal relief, seizure prevention, and more. Given these benefits, it's no surprise that a growing number of Americans have welcomed cannabis into their daily lives, with a recent survey indicating more cannabis users than cigarette smokers, moms very much included.
A simple online search about cannamoms reveals why many have turned to this plant:
- Enhanced patience with their children,
- Improved ability to engage fully with their kids by shedding stress and staying present,
- Relief from the physical strains of motherhood, like carrying children or diaper bags,
- Boosted overall mental well-being.
Each mom experiences cannabis uniquely. For one, it might be a 5mg edible to smooth out the rough edges of a day. For another, it might be a joint before bedtime to alleviate stress, pain, or simply to enjoy a moment of solitude.
The Mother's Day Cannabis Gift Guide
Medical cannamoms, this is your cue to indulge. Pamper yourself with your favorite cannabis this Mother's Day – or any day, for that matter. Here are our top picks for you:
Cannabis Flower

From the various scents you experience while prepping a dose, to the soothing ritual of rolling or loading, and the fast-acting effects, it's not hard to see why cannabis flower is a great treat for a special day. A few strains we'd recommend are:
